Get to the hospital about 1030 for a delivery window of between 11 am & 1 pm. Hoping that it's closer to noon, so I can go scope out a 2013 Magma Red Nismo... on my way to Loma Linda to fix their system on Tuesday.
1220 pm... text from office... check my email ASAP!!!!
System is still in SFO, it got there Friday and they had an 'equipment issue' and couldn't get it to LA by Monday.
Okay, no sweat. I'll go to Loma Linda, fix their system today, spend the night there and do the delivery in Santa Ana tomorrow... easy peasy.....
WRONG!!!!!!! Can't do the repair because the biomed department wants to 'stupidvise' while I swap batteries and enclosure. I HAVE to do the repair on Tuesday... then go BACK to Santa Ana by 1 pm to take delivery of that system, set it up and install it... with a 1 pm to 3 pm window... and make the 7:35 pm flight out of LAX....

That's bad. I've run into things like this when I worked for Elliott.
How would you like it if your phone rings just as you board your flight to Portland Or. You sit down and answer it. It's the office telling you that the job was cancelled. And want you off the plane to drive a truck to another BFE location with the parts for the job. You tell them that it's to late too get off the plane, because it's getting ready for takeoff. And they hang up on you. You are now flying from Pittsburgh to Portland Or.
